Welcome! I am a contemplative thinker and photographer from Colorado. In this blog, you'll discover photographs that I've taken on my hiking and backpacking trips, mostly in the American West. I've paired these with my favorite inspirational and philosophical quotes - literary passages that emphasize the innate spirituality of the natural world. I hope you enjoy them!

For me, landscape seems to be important for contemplation.

 

"I looked at all this [natural setting] in great tranquility, with my soul and spirit quiet.  For me, landscape seems to be important for contemplation."

Thomas Merton
